Holy Trinity Church in Grand Rapids, Michigan hosted the Greek Orthodox Youth Olympics this past weekend (January 27-28). Young people from all over the Metropolis of Detroit joined together in order to get better acquainted, have fun, and learn about their faith. Participants came from as far away as Cincinnati to take part in this, the fourth year of this wonderful event.

All youth (ages 8-18) from the Central and Southern areas of the Metropolis of Detroit are invited to the Southern Area Youth Lenten Retreat. This year's retreat will be held March 31-April 2, 2017 and will be hosted by Holy Trinity Church in Nashville, TN.

The topics and additional resources are now available for the 2017 St. John Chrysostom Oratorical Festival. To view and download resources, visit the following link: www.goarch.org/archdiocese/departments/religioused/sjcof.
